Prepare Financials and Strategy Well in Advance: Begin preparing for a potential sale at least three years ahead. Clean up financial records, set clear valuation goals, and have a methodology in place to manage unsolicited acquisition offers. This proactive approach ensures you are ready to engage with serious buyers when the time is right.3. Engage Multiple Buyers and Highlight Synergies: When considering a sale, engage with multiple potential buyers to increase competition and leverage in negotiations. Discuss potential synergies early in the process to demonstrate how your business can add value to the buyer's portfolio, which can justify a higher sale price.Resources mentioned in this episode:Josh Hadley on LinkedIneComm Breakthrough ConsultingeComm Breakthrough PodcastEmail Josh Hadley: Josh@eCommBreakthrough.comChatGPTObjective IBVTraction by Gino WickmanTikTok for E-commerceSpecial Mention(s):Adam “Heist” Runquist on LinkedInKevin King on LinkedInMichael E.
